  • UPDATE 2021-02-26: after a month and a half of delay with no known release date, we have a new release date, in just ten days! Evangelion 3.0+1.0: Thrice Upon a Time will be released in theaters in Japan March 8, 2021! Omedetou!
    www.animenewsn...
    If you saw an ad, it wasn't due to me. I did not and would not monetize this video.
    This was not on UA-cam, so I had to upload it. I don't own the rights to the STILL FRAME IMAGE from Evangelion, or also, obviously, the greatest performance of the greatest song in all of history.
    This track is taken from The Evangelion Addition CD and was also released on Evangelion Classical vol 1. This is the same performance featured in episode 24 of Neon Genesis Evangelion, and in Evangelion: Death. Composed by Ludwig van Beethoven. Conducted by Alexander Rahbari and performed by the BRTN Philharmonic Orchestra Brussels.
    You will notice the audio has been compressed. I did this because the environment in which music listening takes place has changed. I simply can't play it loudly enough to hear the quiet stuff without the loud stuff potentially bothering my neighbors.
    I'm not completely satisfied with the compression here, either. But then, I'm rarely satisfied with my work. If you understand audio compression better than me, some pointers would be quite welcome. What settings would you recommend? I didn't want to go overboard or anything. Just to bring up the quiet stuff.

    Who wants some TL;DR? In defense of the infamous "minute of nothing," finding out what the lyrics mean at 13:28 is what convinced me Anno is a genius. An 18th-century German hymn stripped of its original context, makes perfect sense synced with the (alleged lack of) animation.
    Original German:
    1: "Seid umschlungen, Millionen!
    2: Diesen Kuß der ganzen Welt!
    3: Brüder, über'm Sternenzelt
    4: Muß ein lieber Vater wohnen!"
    (each two lines are sung by the male soloist, then repeated by the female chorus)
    English:
    1: "Be embraced, millions!" This summarizes the decision Kaworu is coming to and explaining to Shinji while both versions of the line are sung.
    2: "This kiss is for the entire world!" The "kiss" is either Kaworu's self-sacrifice per se (really putting the "Christ" in "Christian motif"), or Shinji's reluctant participation. Killing his one remaining friend to prevent extinction is the precedent for Shinji rejecting his "everybody should die including myself" mentality and ending Instrumentality.
    3: "Brothers, above the star-field
    4: "Must a loving Father dwell!" In Evangelion-context, this is cruel irony at the root of what's wrong with Shinji... or is it? In EOE, Gendo says he kept literal & emotional distance from Shinji to protect him. It could also mean "someone caused all of this," referring to SEELE/Keel, Gendo, and their competing plans driving the entire story. The "Seeds of Life" (Lilith & Adam) in turn have a creator (never directly referenced in NGE/EoE).
    The actual moment of Kaworu's death (and the famous splash) cuts off the first line of the next stanza, "Ihr stürzt nieder, Millionen?/Do you bow to him, millions?" Instrumentality is a choice, despite how hard SEELE worked to force it on everyone and how much Gendo didn't care.

    12:42 In the context of the series, the situation is critical and disturbing; a young boy who's a very nice person, happens to actually be an angel that manages to go further than any other angel has achived to reach within NERV's HQ; everyone is confused and suddenly anxious because of the unexpected and extremely dangerous betrayal, and for Shinji it's even worse; his only friend is now an enemy that has to be killed by all means, and even Kaworu himself asks him to get killed by him. Being given all this information, you would expect a fiting melody for such an event, right? Well, while all this transtorned tragedy is taking place, a classic melody known as "Ode to Joy" starts playing, and because of how anticlimatic it is for the situation, it _does_ slap harder than any dark music they could have chosen for this scene; Imagine that you are *very* depressed, and then, a hopeful song starts playing while your entire life is being teared apart:

    Memes aside, I actually really like this scene. It’s actually my favorite moment out of the entire series from a character analysis standpoint. Having a still frame is a representation of Shinji’s inner conflict and struggle with having to come to terms with Kawrou, the only person who has shown him true affection/love, being an Angel and having to kill him. This part is done pretty well in the Manga as well, but I like the way it was done in the Anime way better. Sometimes less is More

      Maybe it's because it features in Die Hard, Neon Genesis and A Clockwork Orange but I associate it with the phrase "a terrible beauty is born", namely an apocalyptic event like you describe but glorious. It definitely creates a cognitive dissonance in that it's "chirpy" joyful music but there's a force in it that's overwhelming which suggests something cataclysmic. Uneasiness + exhilaration for me listening to this.

    Gladly,
    As His heavenly bodies fly
    On their courses through the heavens,
    Thus, brothers, you should run your race,
    As a hero going to conquest.
    You millions, I embrace you.
    This kiss is for all the world!
    Brothers, above the starry canopy
    There must dwell a loving Father.
    Do you fall in worship, you millions?

    Seek him in the heavens;
    Above the stars must He dwell.

      Under the sway of thy gentle wings.

      An abiding friendship,

      And the cherub stands before God!
      Gladly, like the heavenly bodies
      Which He set on their courses
      Through the splendor of the firmament;

    Anno and his team really know how to use the medium. This scene worked because it was animated--it's the rigidity and illegibility of the Eva's posture and expression that allows us to feel Shinji's turmoil. It's the Kuleshov Effect in excelsis! If we saw any breathing, any twitching, any shifting, we'd focus on that instead, but stillness--absolute stillness--traps us in the entry plug with Shinji. It's genuinely one of the most breathtaking shots I've seen in any medium, up there with Jupiter backlit by the sun in 2001: A Space Odyssey and the Writer, the Scientist, and the Stalker sitting in the rain in Tarkovsky's Stalker.
